Playtime with a Friendly Golden

Pet care experience

Hi! I am new to Rover, but caring for dogs is something my family truly loves. I have a friendly golden retriever named Stanley who absolutely thrives when he has other dogs to play with—so hosting furry friends is a joy for all of us! I work from home most days, which means your pup will get plenty of attention, supervision, and companionship throughout the day. My young kids also love having dogs around and are gentle, playful, and used to being around animals. I also have a cat in our home who is very comfortable around dogs—she and Stanley are great friends—so your pup should be cat-friendly or at least respectful of cats. I have a fully fenced-in yard for safe outdoor playtime, and I treat every dog that stays with us like part of the family. Whether your dog loves to play or just relax, I will make sure they feel comfortable, loved, and right at home. Since I’m just getting started on Rover, I’m excited to build relationships with both pets and their owners and provide a safe, trustworthy environment you can feel confident in.

If I could give more than 5 stars I would. Samantha is the only person I’ve left my babies with and not felt anxious the whole time. She sent me sooo many pictures (which I LOVED) and answered all my questions I had and gave me random updates! My dogs were ready to go home, but clearly had so much fun! I could not have asked for a better person to take care of my dogs for the weekend. Will definitely be booking again!

Samantha is responsive, cheerful and friendly. Tag had a wonderful time staying with her family, including Stanley, a sweet golden retriever. We won’t hesitate to use Samantha again and recommend her highly to others!
